Tim's flu shot and coutns

Tim's flu shot and coutns was created by lucidawn
No, he hasn't bottomed out (lol) so don't worry ;). He got his flu shot today, along with his brothers. I'm hoping he continues to hold his counts, though I know that it can affect them. I think having the flu itself is a pretty good risk for messing with his ITP. Its been nice to relax a bit, though we still have the weekly appointment that takes a minimum of two hours, sometimes more (counts before getting the shot). But, its worth it. Oh, his counts this week were 148k, so we held at 1 mcg/kg.
